In order to determine the mass of a solute, there are a few things you need to know. I am assuming you already know the compounds, and you know about molar mass. If you know the mass or number of moles or possibly volume of solution, and the molarity or mass percent, you can calculate the mass of solute.

...The amount of solute used in the experiment, the molal? boiling or freezing constant value of the solvent, and the amount of solvent used in the experiment.

Or i would say, all of the above.

Weigh a beaker, weigh the beaker with the solvent in it, take the mass of the beaker and solvent and subtract out the weight of the beaker.

How is massed conserved when adding a solute to a solvent?

If you weigh the solute, and then weigh the solvent, and then add the solute to the solvent and weigh the solution, you will find that the sum of the weights of the solute and solvent is equal to the weight of the resulting solution. So mass is conserved.


How can you dissolve more solid into liquid?

Once you have reached a point where you cannot dissolve any more solute in solvent, you have reached a saturation point of the liquid. Now if you increase the temperature of the solution you will be able to dissolve some more solute. Another way to do this is to greatly increase the volume of solvent.


How does mass change when solutes are added to solvents?

The mass of the whole doesn't change, it's simply the sum of the mass of the solute and the mass of the solvent.


How long does it take to boil down 1 cup of salt?

Depends on: * mass or volume of solvent * type of salt * type of solvent * heat input * agitation of solvent


If something dissolves into something else will it change mass?

The mass of the solution will be equal to the mass of the solute plus the mass of the solvent. However, the total mass does not change.


What is the formula for mass percent?

mass % of element X = mass of element X ____________________ X 100 total mass of compound or mass of solute _____________________________ X 100 mass of solute + mass of solvent


A measurement of how much solute exists within a certain volume of solvent?

Mass of solute X 100 Mass of solvent


Use the word solvent in a sentence?

I can give you several sentences.Today's chemistry lesson is to find the correct solvent.The solvent for many materials is water.I cannot find any solvent that this chemical will dissolve into.


What are two conditions that determine the mass of solute that will dissolve in a given mass of solvent?

The temperature: Increasing temperature makes the particles move faster. Heat energy is transferred by the movement of the particles. Because the solvent particles are moving faster, they bump into the solute.Stirring: Moves all the particles around do the solvent particles bump into the solute particles.


Does the Mass mass percent concentration measures grams of solute per grams of solvent?

No, not exactly.Mass mass percent concentration measures grams of solute per 100 grams of solution (= solvent + solute)Example:58.5 g NaCl (solute) added to941.5 g H2O (solvent) gives you1000.0 g solution of 5.85% NaCl (= 100%*58.5/1000.0),which is about a 1.0 mol/L NaCl solution.


60 pounds of solvent for 75 gallons of paint how many solvent are needed for 90 gallons of paint?

Divide 60 lbs of solvent by 75 gal of paint to find how much solvent per gal of paint, then multiply by 90 to find how much solvent you need for 90 gal of paint: 60 / 75 = .8 lbs solvent per gal of paint; .8 x 90 = 72 lbs of solvent needed for 90 gal of paint.


How do you find the solvent in millimeter?

You don't. When you make a solution, the solvent is measured by volume; most likely milliliters instead of millimeters.
